Chapter 376: Chapter 375
"I hope this situation doesn’t happen again within the group. If it does, you won’t need to sit in this position."
Old Lady Blake glanced at Edwin Blake and said lightly.
Edwin Blake directly addressed the senior shareholders present, "Everyone should have heard that. From now on, keep a low profile. If you think you’re earning too little, feel free to switch jobs, or retire and enjoy life at home."
Old Lady Blake then said, "Everyone can slack off a bit since you are all senior elders, but you can’t let Edwin handle everything alone. Just help him out a bit."
These words were spoken with intense sarcasm.
None of the people present spoke up.
They all just felt their faces turning red with shame.
"Does anyone have any questions now? If not, let’s prepare to adjourn the meeting."
Harry Ross prepared to officially end the meeting.
He still had matters to attend to later, and Madam was waiting for him.
Just as the meeting was about to end,
Old Lady Blake suddenly spoke in a bad tone, "Everyone planning to retire, stay behind. The rest can leave."
Edwin Blake knew that this issue had nothing to do with him.
He stood up and walked straight out.
Half an hour later.
Old Lady Blake stood up and walked out. Edwin Blake immediately approached and, naturally, pushed her towards the office.
Once they arrived at the office,
Old Lady Blake said directly, "Edwin Blake, when are you going to bring Ivy River back to me? And concerning Isla, when will you give me an explanation?"
"What does this have to do with Isla?"
"Is it unrelated? How many shares did Isla receive from the high-ups? If you don’t give me an explanation, I’ll make sure she ends up in jail."
Old Lady Blake’s tone was unyielding, letting Edwin Blake know she meant business this time.
"Grandma, I can explain this. Please hear me out. I’ve actually investigated everything."
Old Lady Blake interrupted Edwin Blake’s words, "Shut up! I don’t want to hear you talk. I need a solution now."
"I wouldn’t believe Isla dared to accept bribes without your backing."
Edwin Blake sighed helplessly, "Grandma, I’ve already started dealing with this. Really, please don’t interfere. Let me handle it henceforth."
"Then tell me now, what exactly did Isla do!"
Upon hearing this, Edwin Blake fell silent.
Old Lady Blake turned her head to ask Harry Ross directly, "Harry, you tell me. Don’t wait for your president to say anything. In this Blake Clan Group, my words still count!"
Harry Ross glanced nervously at Edwin Blake.
Knowing Edwin didn’t want him to speak, he tried to muddle Old Lady Blake’s thoughts, "Let me tell you, Old Lady, the president only found out about these things yesterday. Really, I can assure you."
"As soon as the president found out about this, he started preparing. He’s your grandson, and this group will still bear the Blake name in the future, not someone else’s, right?"
Old Lady Blake was not persuaded, directly saying, "It could bear someone else’s name. The surname ’River’ is nice."
"No, Old Lady, don’t be confused. The president is already making changes, please trust in your grandson!"
"I can’t trust him even a bit, that worthless brat. I really don’t want to deal with him. Where’s Ivy? Can she have dinner with me tonight?"
Old Lady Blake turned to Edwin Blake, posing a soul-searching question.
"Grandma, why are you asking me about this! Why don’t you call Ivy River if you want to see her?"
Edwin Blake avoided it, just as the old lady threw the phone at him.
He dodged it, "Grandma, Ivy River doesn’t answer my calls, you know that. Besides, she’s out of the country now. Tonight, you’ll only get to see me!"
"Out of the country? How do I not know? What about the child if she’s abroad? She didn’t take the child away again, did she?"
Old Lady Blake suddenly became anxious, "No, Harry, hurry up and investigate. The child can’t run away, and Ivy can’t run either!"
Edwin Blake said irritably, "Harry, did you hear that? Hurry up and find out."
Harry thought inwardly, you’re hitting the nail on the head.
Originally, President Blake was already asking about Ivy River’s whereabouts today.
Now Old Lady Blake was also pressing.
Who could withstand this pressure!
Harry laughed bitterly, "I’ll go now to find out about Madam’s whereabouts. The child hasn’t gone abroad, I confirmed it earlier, so Madam should have gone abroad for business. You can rest assured."
"Rest assured? I can’t rest assured at all. She ran five years ago, why wouldn’t she run five years later? Can’t the child still be sent abroad? Hurry up and find out!"
Old Lady Blake was already very unhappy.
Harry immediately ran out the door, "I’ll go ask Director Chadwick and confirm how long Madam took a leave and where she went on a business trip."
"Get out!"
Once only the grandmother and grandson were left in the room,
Old Lady Blake took the initiative, "Edwin Blake, it’s not that Grandma is pressuring you; it’s just that woman is unreliable. You should have the basic judgment."
"Don’t blame Grandma for nagging; you should be considerate of Grandma, shouldn’t you, dear grandson, Grandma’s good grandson."
Old Lady Blake tried to start brainwashing, "Ivy has treated you so well. Think about before, right? Can that woman treat you that way?"
"She can’t, right? Only Ivy has stuck by you all these years, even willing to give you children. Not only that, but twins!"
"If I were you, I’d treat her well so she wouldn’t get hurt. But what about you? You stubbornly hang onto one woman. I really can’t understand!"
"Edwin Blake, am I talking to you or what? What’s going on with you? Am I playing music to a bull? Right?"
"I tell you, if you want to marry that woman, wait until I’m dead. I’ll make a will, declaring if you marry her, the Blake Clan Group will only belong to my great-grandchild for life."
"Unless you and she have a lifelong secret affair, regardless of her giving birth to a Blake child, I won’t acknowledge it. She’ll always be an illegitimate child."
Edwin Blake couldn’t listen any longer; it was simply too outrageous.
He interrupted directly, "Grandma, let me tell you, I no longer have any relationship with Isla Sutton, so you can rest easy."
Old Lady Blake was still nagging when she suddenly heard this sentence and thought her ears were deceiving her.
She spoke in surprise, "What did you say? Did Grandma hear wrong?"
"No, Grandma, what I said earlier was accurate. I’m not continuing with Isla Sutton, we actually never dated..."
Edwin Blake spoke with some helplessness, "We’ve always been good friends. I have felt for her loneliness all these years, so I turned a blind eye."
"Besides, there’s nothing between us. I don’t know why you think I like her so deeply; it’s all her self-directed play... A crafted persona."
Old Lady Blake frowned and said, "No, but initially, I remember you said to me you wanted to marry her."
"Wasn’t that youthful ignorance? I remember that incident. At that time, I said I wanted to marry before Ivy River appeared! In recent years, when have I ever said I want to marry her to you!"
Edwin Blake spoke urgently, like trying to prove himself, "I’ve never had a relationship with her!"
